You know you want to see my spiders 
This kind of spider invades my basement every year. I love watching them so when we find them I put them in a container. At the time of these pics I had 9 but 2 got eaten by one of the huge females today so now there’s 7. Ive probably had 20 spiders or more in the past 2 months. I feed them bugs from outside, clean there container, give them water and I made them this awesome jungle gym with places for them to hide under. They seem quite content. I love my little spiders! 
I call the big one in this pic Big Mama (shes a female) The males are scared of her. Shes quite aggressive towards them. Ate a few of them so I dont wonder why they always move to get out of her way!
The pink things that look kinda like ears are hides I made for them out of super sculpy. That big female is called Little Mama. Theres another big female I just got yesterday thats way bigger than even Big Mama. I call her Queen Bitch. Shes huge and all the spiders are scared of her. Shes very agressive! Didnt get a good pic of her tho 
Thats Queen Bitch on the bottom right. When shes not under her hide shes very impressive!
Happy spider family! There’s actually 9 here but you can only see 7. 2 are on the other side of the jumgle gym. This container sits on my desk and I watch them when I work and stuff. There so fascinating! I really wish I could have a container of spiders like this all year long. Id actually love a tarantula but my family is opposed to the idea. Im not sure why considering 90% of my spiders are caught by and given to me by them!

OMG! You caught these and raised them???? I didn’t realize that’s what you meant when you posted bout it on Twitter!!!!!!! Do you know what kind of spiders they are?

Well I caught them but I didnt raise them from spiderlings or anything. There just regular house spiders. Some Ive had for weeks and some for days. The females will live longer than the males and I know some have been mated with so its possible they will lay eggs and then I will let them raise the babies.
We get these spiders usually from early March right thru November so Im sure I will have many more of them. We find at least 1 a day and thats not even looking for them! Mina and Jazzy find most of them actually. There good spider hunters

And what do Mina and Jazzy do with the spiders they find?

They just bat them around and watch them. When we notice there at something we investigate and then collect the spider. I dunno if they eat them when were not around or not. I know Midnight used to. Once we caught him with spider legs twitching outside his mouth!
